Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .
Needs an air clear, but looks solid otherwise.

Maybe some value??
“I have for sale a 1948 jeep. It’s been sitting in a barn for 15-20 years so it is a project. Or would be great for parts. It has 129,997 original miles. It ran before being put away. Has a rare hardtop. Typical rust such as floorboards and rockers. Would make a great farm truck or something to restore for parades.
Asking $800 HAS A TITLE!
Can haul within reason”

“Selling my ’46 Willys CJ2A. Runs and drives, has no brakes….at all. Carb was just rebuilt with a master rebuild kit so not just the gaskets and float but the jets and nozzles too. Will need a new tub more than likely and about a foot or so worth of frame reinforcement on the right rear side. Not in a rush to sell but would rather have my girlfriend’s car in the garage over the winter and not dump every red cent of mine into this thing at the moment. Has original seat frames and is all numbers matching.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
(11/07/2015) “Up for sale is a ’48 Jeep Willys. It’s in fair condition, could definitely use a little TLC. Originally bought as a resto project for myself but I no longer have the time Lethe funds. My loss is your gain.
$1500 Or Best Offer. Im open to entertaining offers, no reasonable offer will be turned down.”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $400.
If you need parts, this may be a great option.
“I have 3 mail jeeps for sale. Right-hand steering, not running, no paperwork, missing motor parts, rust. Sunday appointments/pick-up only. Woodcrest area. $400 for all 3. First caller wins the deal.”
Andrew spotted this blue CJ-3A in the Rain Forest area of the Milwaukee Public Museum and took most of these photos. The staff informed him that it was used by a museum research team in the 1980s. According to the museum’s webpage, the team collected specimens in Costa Rica during 1986. Since the CJ-3A’s license plates are Costa Rican, they may well have used the jeep in Costa Rica and brought it back with them.
